On display part 6; Many source bus line (video signal cable) S (1) that are connected with the data signal wire driving circuit of incoming video signal ..., S (N) and be connected in scan signal line drive circuit many grid buss (scan signal line) G (1) ..., G (M) is configured to the ranks shape each other, each intersection point of these buses is provided with the on-off element that the TFT8 that is connected with pixel electrode 7 etc. constitutes.The voltage VghVgl voltage that applies on the grid bus that TFT8 is utilized in this TFT8 is connected carries out switch control.
Control circuit 3 has the effect as the control part of display device 1, from figure LSI2 acceptance point CK (Dot Clock signal), horizontal-drive signal (Hsync) and GOE signal (about the detailed content of GOE signal, said below) etc.Control circuit 3 generates various control signals according to the some CK, horizontal-drive signal and the GOE signal that receive from figure LSI2, and outputs to gate drivers 4 and source electrode driver 5.As from the signal of control circuit 3, grid ramp signal, grid initial pulse (GSP), gate clock pulse (GCK) and latch signal etc. are arranged to gate drivers 4 transmissions.
Gate drivers 4 is as shown in Figure 2, possesses: by M bistable multivibrator (F1 of series connection ..., FM) the 10 shift LD portions 11 that constitute; Input comes from the output of each bistable multivibrator 10 and a plurality of and door 60 of GOE signal; According to from each a plurality of SS 12 of switching of output of door 60; Generation is input to the VD1 generative circuit 72 of input signal of an input terminal of SS 12; And the VD2 generative circuit 21 that generates the input signal of another input terminal that is input to SS 12.The public terminal of on-off element 12 with corresponding to the grid bus G (1) of this SS 12 ..., G (M) connects.
It is the grid off voltage Vgl of off-state that 21 generations of VD2 generative circuit are enough to make the TFT8 that is arranged at display part 6.
It is the gate turn-on voltage Vgh of on-state that 72 generations of VD1 generative circuit are enough to make the TFT8 that is arranged at display part 6.
Describe down in the face of structure and GOE signal as the figure LSI2 of most important parts of the present invention.
Figure LSI2 is as shown in Figure 1, possesses: Dot Clock signal control part 30; Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31; Horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32; And first pixel is stable write during decision-making circuit 70.
And horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 inside possess the clock counter 34 that the Dot Clock signal is counted, on the other hand, first pixel is stable write during decision-making circuit 70 inside possess timing circuit 71.
Dot Clock signal control part 30 according to the expectation refresh rate (frame frequency) commit point clock signal, and will corresponding to this Dot Clock signal command signal be transferred to Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31.
The instruction that Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31 is accepted from Dot Clock signal control part 30 generates the Dot Clock signal.That is to say that the Dot Clock signal in this embodiment changes corresponding to refresh rate.Therefore, for example when wanting to realize low power consumption, can use the low refresh rate of 40Hz, and on the other hand, in other cases, can use the for example common refresh rate of 60Hz.And Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31 also sends to the Dot Clock signal that generates the control circuit 3 and the inner horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 of figure LSI2 of display device 1 one sides.
Horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 utilizes the Dot Clock signal of 34 pairs of stipulated numbers of clock counter to count from Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31 acceptance point clock signals, and generates horizontal-drive signal.And horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 also sends to decision-making circuit 70 during inner stable the writing of first pixel of control circuit 3 and the figure LSI2 of display device 1 one sides with the horizontal-drive signal that generates.
First pixel is stable write during decision-making circuit 70 as stated, inside has timing circuit 71, utilize this timing circuit 71 decision pixels be stable write during (GOE signal _ high level width), and generate the GOE signal.The reference clock that these timing circuit 71 bases are different with above-mentioned Dot Clock signal carries out the time instrumentation.Here, so-called pixel is stable to be meant in a scan period during writing, gate drivers 4 outputs be enough to make grid bus (scan signal line) G (1) ..., the scanning of connecting of the TFT8 on the G (M) voltage (high level) during.
And, also to first pixel is stable write during decision-making circuit 70 input level synchronizing signals, this horizontal-drive signal becomes the reset signal of GOE signal.Thereby the cycle of GOE signal is the identical cycle with the cycle of horizontal-drive signal.
Yet, be to utilize the Dot Clock signal in the past, promptly the Dot Clock signal is counted (GOE signal _ high level width) and grid off period (GOE signal _ low level width) during setting that pixel is stable and writing.Therefore, under the situation that refresh rate changes, the Dot Clock signal changes, thus pixel is stable write during (GOE signal _ high level width) and grid off period (GOE signal _ low level width) also change thereupon.
And first pixel of this embodiment is stable write during in the decision-making circuit 70, with pixel is stable write during (GOE signal _ high level width) fixing, its variation with refresh rate is had nothing to do.To concrete grammar that realize this point be described below.
First pixel is stable write during decision-making circuit 70 with horizontal-drive signal as reset signal (as triggering), during utilizing that timing circuit 71 instrumentation pixels are stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width).That is to say, in the input level synchronizing signal, timing circuit 71 beginning instrumentations.Then, in a single day instrumentation finishes, and just making the GOE signal is low level.In case the GOE signal is a low level, just making TFT8 is the hard closing state.As a result, during can making that pixel is stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width) for certain, and irrelevant with the variation of refresh rate.
For example, Fig. 3 is the sequential chart of Dot Clock signal, horizontal-drive signal (Hsync), GOE signal, VG (j), VG (j+1) and VG (j+2) under the situation of expression 60Hz refresh rate.On the other hand, Fig. 4 is the sequential chart of Dot Clock signal, horizontal-drive signal (Hsync), GOE signal, VG (j), VG (j+1) and VG (j+2) under the expression 40Hz situation.Even become from the refresh rate of 60Hz shown in Figure 3 under the situation of refresh rate of 40Hz shown in Figure 4; Also can be arranged at that first pixel is stable and write during the different reference clock signal of Dot Clock signal in the timing circuit 71 of decision-making circuit 70; Rather than the Dot Clock signal in this embodiment, during coming that the instrumentation pixel is stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width).
More particularly, even refresh rate is being become from 60Hz under the situation of 40Hz, during not changing also that pixel is stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width).Be to be 16.9 microseconds under the situation of 60Hz during this period at refresh rate.As shown in Figure 4, horizontal-drive signal one input just utilizes timing circuit 71 beginning instrumentations.Then, one through 16.9 microseconds, and the GOE signal just becomes low level from high level.When importing next horizontal-drive signal again, the GOE signal is become high level from low level once more, repeat aforesaid operations thereafter.During can making like this that pixel is stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width) for certain, and during making that pixel is stable and writing for certain, and irrelevant with refresh rate.
In addition, Fig. 5 is the form that (pixel stablize write during) compares during expression is Dot Clock signal frequency, clock count value, horizontal-drive signal cycle, GOE signal _ high level width and the TGON under the situation of situation and 40Hz of 60Hz to refresh rate.Especially, if during being conceived to TGON (pixel is stable write during), then can know no matter be at 60Hz or 40Hz, under the situation of arbitrary refresh rate, can make TGON during (pixel is stable write during) for certain.
And be not limited to said structure, and also can be according to panel size or resolution, promptly according to the kind of display device, during setting at random that pixel is stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width).Describe in the face of this structure down.
Here, as an example, be that example describes with different types of display device A display device B each other.
Through set-up register again on the basis of said structure, first pixel is stable write during decision-making circuit 70 can determine that pixel is stable and write during (GOE signal _ high level width).
Here, in order to help to understand, utilize register shown in Figure 6 and TGON during (pixel stablize write during) corresponding form describe.
In this table with corresponding expression during register and the TGON.That is, as shown in Figure 6, for register (0,0), 10 microseconds during the distribution T GON, for 15 microseconds during register (0,1) the distribution T GON, for 20 microseconds during register (1,0) the distribution T GON, for register (1,1), 25 microseconds during the distribution T GON.
Then, from first pixel of display device 1 one side direction figure LSI2 is stable write during the corresponding signal of kind of decision-making circuit 70 inputs and display device.For convenience's sake, this signal is called the register setting signal here.This register signal setting signal is the signal of set-up register, utilizes the setting of this register, during can determining that pixel is stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width).For example, as shown in Figure 6, under the situation of display device A; Utilize the register setting signal, mask register (0,0); Pixel is stable write during (GOE signal _ high level width) be 10 microseconds, under the situation of display device B, utilize the register setting signal; Mask register (1,0), pixel is stable write during (GOE signal _ high level width) be 15 microseconds.Like this can be according to the kind of display device, during setting that pixel is stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width).If during can determining like this that pixel is stable and writing (GOE signal _ high level width), then utilize with above said identical method, can with the change of refresh rate irrespectively fixed pixel stablize write during (GOE signal _ high level width).In addition, above-mentioned register setting signal can be synchronous with the command signal of exporting from Dot Clock signal control part 30, also can be asynchronous.
The said reference signal is preferably used the timer clock signal.In addition, the benchmark CLK that reference signal can using system CPU etc. controls, rather than uses the Dot Clock signal that shows usefulness.
In addition, be not limited to said structure, under the situation that frame frequency (refresh rate) changes, also can be and the count value of set point clock signal initiatively according to the variation of this frame frequency, during writing so that fixed pixel is stable or set the value that it is a regulation.That is to say, under the situation that the Dot Clock signal frequency of demonstration usefulness also changes when frame frequency changes, can control through the count value that changes CLK.
(comparative example of embodiment 1)
Comparative example in the face of above-mentioned embodiment describes down.
Fig. 7 is the sequential chart of Fig. 3 comparative example of this embodiment of expression, and Fig. 8 is the sequential chart of Fig. 4 comparative example of this embodiment of expression.As shown in Figure 7, in comparative example, utilize the count value of Dot Clock signal to come during the instrumentation TGON.Here, as shown in Figure 7, be 811 clock signals (CK).And, become from 60Hz under the situation of 40Hz at refresh rate, making equally during the TGON is 811 clock signals (CK).
Therefore, be under the situation of 60Hz at refresh rate, as shown in Figure 7, be 16.9 microseconds during the TGON, and be under the situation of 40Hz at refresh rate, as shown in Figure 8, during the TGON 25.3 microseconds.Promptly, also of all kinds during the TGON because of the difference of refresh rate, there is the uncontrollable also fixing problem during the TGON.
In addition, Fig. 9 is the form of comparative example of Fig. 5 of this embodiment of expression.Shown in this table, in comparative example, to counting according to clock number during the TGON, so there is the problem that changes corresponding to refresh rate.
Embodiment 2 is (about " B; During the grid slope " fixing embodiment)
Utilize accompanying drawing that another embodiment of the present invention is described below.In this embodiment, the difference with above-mentioned embodiment 1 is described, therefore, for the ease of explanation, to have with embodiment 1 in the member of illustrated member identical function, adopt same numbering, and omit its explanation.In the above-described embodiment, control during writing pixel is stable.And in this embodiment, to during the grid slope is set, the mode that can control simultaneously during this grid slope describes.
Here, be meant during the so-called grid slope voltage level tilt to descend (or ladder property ground descends) during.
The source electrode driver 4 of this embodiment is shown in figure 10, possesses: by M bistable multivibrator (F1 of series connection ..., FM) the 10 shift LD portions 11 that constitute; According to a plurality of SSes 12 that switch from the output separately of each bistable multivibrator 10; Generation is input to the VD1 generative circuit 20 of input signal of an input terminal of SS 12; And the VD2 generative circuit 21 that generates the input signal of another input terminal that is input to SS 12.The public terminal of SS 12 with corresponding to the grid bus G (1) of this SS 12 ..., G (M) connects.That is to say, different with embodiment 1, be not provided with and door 60.

An input terminal to switch SW1 applies signal voltage Vdd.This signal voltage Vdd has to be enough to make above-mentioned TFT8 to become the DC voltage of Vgh voltage of the level of on-state.Another terminal of this switch SW 1 is connected with the end of resistance R cnt, and also is connected with the end of capacitor Ccnt.The other end of resistance R cnt is through switch SW 2 ground connection.The switch control of this switch SW 2 is carried out according to the grid ramp signal via inverter INV input.
The grid ramp signal is described in the literary composition of back, and is synchronous with horizontal-drive signal, carries out the switch control of switch SW 1, carries out the switch control of switch SW 2 simultaneously through inverter INV.
Specifically, be that switch SW 1 is an on-state under the situation of high level (pixel write during) at the grid ramp signal, for this switch SW 2, INV applies low level via inverter, so switch SW 2 is an off-state.Therefore, Vgh voltage is applied to as the VD1 signal on the input terminal of switch SW, and Vgh voltage also is accumulated among the capacitor Ccnt simultaneously.
On the contrary, be under the situation on low level (during the grid slope) at the grid ramp signal, switch SW 1 is an off-state, at this moment, for switch SW 2, INV applies high level via inverter, so switch SW 2 is an on-state.Therefore, the electric charge that is held among the capacitor Ccnt is through resistance R cnt discharge, and voltage level descends from Vgh voltage gradually.With voltage level descend so gradually during be called the grid slope during.Thereby, as the VD1 signal of the input signal of a terminal that is input to SS 12 (signal that generates by the VD1 generative circuit), for like the civilian described Figure 13 in back, the sawtooth wave shown in 14.
Then, also the same in this embodiment with embodiment 1, structure and grid ramp signal as the figure LSI2 of most important part of the present invention are described.

And horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 inside possess the clock counter 34 that the Dot Clock signal is counted, and on the other hand, decision-making circuit 33 inside possess timing circuit 35 during the first grid slope.
Dot Clock signal control part 30 and will be transferred to Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31 corresponding to the command signal of this Dot Clock signal according to refresh rate (frame frequency) the commit point clock signal of expectation.
The instruction that Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31 is accepted from Dot Clock signal control part 30 generates the Dot Clock signal.That is to say that the Dot Clock signal in this embodiment changes according to refresh rate.Therefore, for example when wanting to realize low power consumption, can use the low refresh rate of 40Hz, and on the other hand, in other cases, can use the for example common refresh rate of 60Hz.And Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31 also sends to the Dot Clock signal that generates the control circuit 3 and the inner horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 of figure LSI2 of display device 1 one sides.
Horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 utilizes the Dot Clock signal of 34 pairs of stipulated numbers of clock counter to count from Dot Clock signal generating circuit 31 acceptance point clock signals, and generates horizontal-drive signal.And horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 also sends to decision-making circuit 33 during the inner first grid slope of control circuit 3 and the figure LSI2 of display device 1 one sides with the horizontal-drive signal that generates.
Decision-making circuit 33 during the first grid slope, and inside has timing circuit 35 as stated, utilize (GS signal _ low level width) during this timing circuit 35 decision grid slopes, and generate the grid ramp signal.The reference clock that these timing circuit 35 bases are different with above-mentioned Dot Clock signal carries out the time instrumentation.
And, decision-making circuit 33 input level synchronizing signals during the first grid slope also, this horizontal-drive signal becomes the reset signal of grid ramp signal.Thereby the cycle of grid ramp signal is the identical cycle with the cycle of horizontal-drive signal.
Yet, be in the past through utilize the Dot Clock signal, promptly the Dot Clock signal counted, set pixel write during during (GS signal _ high level width) and the grid slope (GS signal _ low level width).Therefore, changing under the situation of refresh rate, the Dot Clock signal changes, thus pixel write during during (GS signal _ high level width) and the grid slope (GS signal _ low level width) also change thereupon.
And during the first grid slope of this embodiment in the decision-making circuit 33, fixedly (GS signal _ low level width) during the grid slope, and irrelevant with the variation of refresh rate.Describe in the face of the concrete grammar of realizing this point down.
Decision-making circuit 33 is accepted horizontal-drive signal from horizontal-drive signal generation circuit 32 during the first grid slope, so can obtain the cycle (being exactly the one-period of horizontal-drive signal from the next input of being input to of horizontal-drive signal promptly) of a horizontal-drive signal.Thereby, through from the cycle (1H) of this horizontal-drive signal, deduct (GS signal _ low level width) during (being predetermined) grid slope of predetermined fixed, during just can obtaining pixel and writing (GS signal _ high level width).During if known pixels writes (GS signal _ high level width); Then with horizontal-drive signal as reset signal (as trigger); (GS signal _ high level width) carries out instrumentation and (that is to say during utilizing 35 pairs of these pixels of timing circuit to write; In the input level synchronizing signal, timer just begins instrumentation).Can generate the grid ramp signal of having fixed (GS signal _ low level width) during the grid slope with this.As a result, can make during the grid slope (GS signal _ low level width) for certain, and irrelevant with the variation of refresh rate.
For example, Figure 13 is the sequential chart of Dot Clock signal, horizontal-drive signal (Hsync), GS signal, VD1, VG (j), VG (j+1) and VG (j+2) under the situation of expression 60Hz refresh rate.On the other hand, Figure 14 is the sequential chart of Dot Clock signal, horizontal-drive signal (Hsync), GS signal, VD1, VG (j), VG (j+1) and VG (j+2) under the expression 40Hz situation.Even become from the refresh rate of 60Hz shown in Figure 13 under the situation of refresh rate of 40Hz shown in Figure 14; In this embodiment; Neither use the Dot Clock signal; And use be arranged at the first grid slope during the different reference clock of Dot Clock signal in the timing circuit 35 of decision-making circuit 33, come (GS signal _ low level width) during the instrumentation grid slope.
More particularly, be that refresh rate is being become from 60Hz under the situation of 40Hz, to carrying out instrumentation during the one-period of the horizontal-drive signal of after changing refresh rate (being 40Hz) here.Shown in figure 14, be 40.3 microseconds during this period.Then, from deducting during this period (GS signal _ low level width during the fixing grid slope that is predetermined; 10 microseconds), the result is 30.3 microseconds.
Shown in figure 14, horizontal-drive signal is input in a single day, and timing circuit 35 just begins instrumentation, makes the grid ramp signal become high level from low level simultaneously.Then, through 30.3 microseconds, make the grid ramp signal become low level from high level.When importing next horizontal-drive signal again, then make the grid ramp signal become high level from low level once more, then repeat aforesaid operations afterwards.Can make with this that (GS signal _ low level width) serves as certain during grid slope, and irrelevant with refresh rate.
In addition, Figure 15 is that expression is the form that Dot Clock signal frequency, clock count value, horizontal-drive signal cycle (Hsync cycle), GS signal _ high level width (pixel write during) and GS signal _ low level width (during the grid slope) under the situation of situation and 40Hz of 60Hz compare to refresh rate.If especially be conceived to grid slope width, can know no matter be under the 60Hz or the situation of arbitrary refresh rate of 40Hz, can make the grid slope during (GS signal _ low level width) certain.
And be not limited to said structure, and also can be according to panel size or resolution, promptly set (GS signal _ low level width) during the grid slope arbitrarily according to the kind of display device.Describe in the face of this structure down.
Here, as an example, be that example describes with the mutually different display device A display device of kind B.
Through set-up register again on the basis of said structure, decision-making circuit 33 can determine (GS signal _ low level width) during the grid slope during the first grid slope.Here, in order to help to understand, utilize register shown in Figure 16 and grid slope during (GS signal _ low level width) corresponding form describe.
This form is with register and the corresponding expression of GS signal _ low level width (during the grid slope).Promptly shown in figure 16, for (GS signal _ low level width) 5 microseconds during register (0,0) the distribution grid slope; For register (0; 1) (GS signal _ low level width) 10 microseconds during the distribution grid slope are for (GS signal _ low level width) 15 microseconds during register (1,0) the distribution grid slope; For (GS signal _ low level width) 20 microseconds during register (1,1) the distribution grid slope.
Then, decision-making circuit 33 during the first grid slope of figure LSI2 is from the display device 1 one sides input signal corresponding with the kind of display device.For convenience's sake, this signal is called the register setting signal here.This register signal setting signal is the signal of set-up register, through the setting of this register, can determine (GS signal _ low level width) during the grid slope.For example, shown in figure 16, under the situation of display device A; Utilize the register setting signal, mask register (0,0); (GS signal _ low level width) is 5 microseconds during the grid slope, under the situation of display device B, utilizes the register setting signal; Mask register (1,0), (GS signal _ low level width) is 15 microseconds during the grid slope.Like this can be according to during the kind setting grid slope of display device (GS signal _ low level width).If can determine like this (GS signal _ low level width) during the grid slope, just can utilize the method identical, with the change of refresh rate irrespectively fixedly (GS signal _ low level width) during the grid slope with said method.
In addition, the effect during the grid slope in the past is flicker and Δ V in the reduction face, so utilizing the grid slope to come under the state of flicker and Δ V in the reduction face, to the bias voltage enforcement optimization (adjustment) of opposite electrode.Therefore, if change during the grid slope, then the reduction amount of flicker and Δ V changes in the face, thereby departs from optimization (adjustment) state, flicker in the generation face.On the contrary, of this embodiment, with fixing during the grid slope, can stationary plane in the reduction amount of flicker and Δ V, even refresh rate changes, also can prevent the generation of glimmering in the face.
